WATER AND DIAMOND: NO. 15 BEAUTIFUL BRILLIANCY


Brilliancy is a beauty.  Prettiness, Kirei, and beauty, Utsukushisa, means slightly different in Japanese.  Water has prettiness, but not beauty.  However, we say the flow of water is beautiful.  In the same way, we refer light as pretty and brilliancy as beautiful.

Thinking in that way, beauty refers the nature of the materials, or its function which stimulates human emotion to make a positive reaction.  That makes beauty and pretty different.
Moreover, the word beauty is often accompanied by a sense of dignity which the speaker has.  S/he observes and comprehends the object, and resonate it inside of her/him.

Brilliancy of the diamond also is a material term.  I would like you to know that the material tem is supported by the resonance from inside.  For those who can resonate, I really wish them to have diamonds.
